Nondietary ingestion of pesticides by children in an agricultural community on the US/Mexico border: Preliminary results

TL;DR: It is suggested that surface loadings of pesticides, on hands, are more highly correlated with urinary bioassays and, therefore, may be more useful for estimation of exposure in epidemiologic studies than levels of pesticides in housedust.
Journal ArticleDOI

Porous organoclay composite for the sorption of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and pentachlorophenol from groundwater.

TL;DR: The findings of this initial study have delineated differences between CP/LPHM and GAC for groundwater remediation, and suggest that GAC (instead of sand) as the solid support for organoclay may be more effective for the treatment of contaminated groundwater under field conditions than GAC or CP/ LPHM alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Children's mouthing and food-handling behavior in an agricultural community on the US/Mexico border.

TL;DR: The highest combined (hand and object) mouthing rates were observed among infants, suggesting that this age group has the greatest potential for exposure to environmental toxins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomonitoring of exposure in farmworker studies

TL;DR: Issues such as the appropriateness of biomonitoring for a given study, the sampling time frame, temporal variability in biological measurements to nonpersistent chemicals, and the complex issues surrounding data interpretation are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polychlorinated Dibenzo-p-dioxins and Dibenzofurans Associated with Wood-Preserving Chemical Sites: Biomonitoring with Pine Needles

TL;DR: Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of pine needle extracts from two pentachlorophenol wood-preserving sites detected relatively high overall concentrations of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs; 1798 and 935 ppt) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs; 310 and 141 ppt).
